Light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor device that emits light when an electric current is passed through it. LED is described as solid-state devices, which distinguished this lighting technology from other sources that use heated filaments (incandescent and tungsten halogen lamps) or gas discharge (fluorescent lamps). It is a sustainable alternative to conventional lighting that uses an impressive 90% less energy than standard incandescent bulbs, and has an extremely long service life, low hear generation, and tiny little amount of UV rays (less risk of fading to wood finishes).
Fine cabinets could be the best pieces of furniture in your home, and they represent the true works of art. Since some of these cabinets are made of highest quality of wood, stained, and finished in high level of perfection, it is necessary to treat them properly.
History: Nick Holonyak (1962): invented the first LED that could produce visible red light. The first high-brightness blue LED was demonstrated by SHUJI Nakamura of Nichia Corporation in 1994. The existence of blue LEDs and high-efficiency LEDs led to the development of the first 'white LED', which employed a phosphor coating to partially convert the emitted blue light to red and green frequencies creating a light that appears white.
In 2008 in the United States and Canada, the Energy Star program began to label lamps that meet a set of standards for starting time, life expectancy, color, and consistency of performance. The intent of the program is to reduce consumer concerns due to variable quality of products, by providing transparency and standards for the labeling and usability of products available in the market.

LED strip lights, also known as LED tape lights or LED ribbon lights, are known for their low-profile size and flexibility. 7 Things to Know Before Buying and Installing 12V LED Strip Lights https://www.ledsupply.com/blog/7-tips-before-installing-led-strip-lights/ Videos (LED lighting system)
These linear strips are either vertically mounted or horizontally mounted, depending on cabinet design (easier to brighten the dark and hard-to-reach area). We use it in display case, antique cabinet, custom kitchen cabinet, etc.
here are some examples:
Under cabinet lighting
Interior cabinet lighting
drawer lighting
Down lighting
Mirror lighting
Fixed shelf lighting
Wardrobe lighting
My own experience: once I connected a LED light bar and a switching adapter by twisting the wires together, and the light went on when I plug it in.
